ARE YOU CULLING OUT SCRIPTURES?
ARE YOU CULLING OUT SCRIPTURES:
I'm positive the majority of "Christians" have removed Luke 3:16 from their Bibles. Allow me to reveal something very important.
When Jesus was baptized by John, the HOLY SPIRIT came upon Him. Prior to this time Jesus was "powerless" to heal, save and deliver. Once the Holy Spirit anointed Him, the scriptures tell us He led [or drove] Him up into the mountain to fast and pray and become weak in His flesh.
Forty days later when Satan came to tempt Him He had the power He'd left in Heaven plus He fully knew who He was, the Messiah and resisted the devil who left Him "until an opportune time".
Now notice, not another person baptized by John or anyone else was anointed with the Power of God.
In Luke 3:16 we are told explicitly, JESUS IS HE WHO BAPTIZES IN THE HOLY SPIRIT. No one else can but Him.
Now, may I ask a question? Do you have the power to witness Jesus [on you]?
If you are born again and He is living [abiding] in you [for sure] but unless you ask Jesus to Baptize you, you will live a frustrated life.
MORE PROOF:
Please notice when Jesus "breathed on His disciples [11 Judas had committed suicide] they wanted to go out and tell the world JESUS IS ALIVE HE HAS RISEN FROM THE DEAD. But the Lord wouldn't permit them for they had a [40 day time with Him teaching them first].
On the day He ascended into Heaven they watched Him go up and wanted to go tell then, but were told to "wait until Power comes upon you from on high."
On Pentecost [10 days later or a total of 50 days] The Holy Spirit fell on not only them but a gathering of 120.
From that moment on, the Gospel was going to be preached under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. There are, only the Lord knows how many today attempting to witness without His power. Are you one of them?
Read Luke 3:16 and ask and [if] your heart is right with the Lord, "You will receive Power". He promised it.
